Chapter 935 Chapter 935, Named
After repeatedly confirming with the two maids that her son was fine, Daohua finally felt relieved. She carefully put her sleeping son to bed and then looked at Fangniang: "Thank you so much for what happened just now."
Fang Niang quickly shook her head: "Madam, you are serious. I have just taken care of many children and have some experience."
Daohua smiled and said, "Experience is also a skill. You are too modest, ma'am." Then, noticing that she was still carrying the child, she said, "Put the child down. It's tiring to carry him all the time."
Fang Niang was worried that the child would make a noise after being put down, so she declined awkwardly: "Thank you, madam. I am not tired."
Seeing this, Guyu walked over with a smile and said, "My wife, my wife is also kind-hearted. Please put the child down so that you can sit down and talk to her."
Seeing Fangniang still seemed hesitant, he could only say, "You have to stand all the time. My wife will have to look up to talk to you."
After hearing this, Fang Niang put her daughter down from her back.
"Oh, the little girl is so cute!"
Fang Niang sat on the chair that Guyu had brought. The little girl, who was less than a year old, was awake in her arms. She sat in her mother's arms without crying or making a fuss, and her big black eyes looked at everything in the room curiously.
Daohua was overflowing with maternal love at this time. Seeing the little girl was well-behaved and cute, she liked her very much. She smiled and said to Fangniang, "Can I hug your daughter?"
Fang Niang nodded quickly: "Of course, but my Qiaojie is a little heavy, please don't tire Madam."
Daohua smiled and said, "She is so young, how could she be tired?" Then she reached out and took the little girl.
The little girl was not shy and let Daohua hold her obediently.
"Qiaojie," Daohua said, looking at Fangniang with a smile, "What a lovely little girl! She has a great name too. She will surely be blessed when she grows up."
Fang Niang immediately smiled: "Thank you for your kind words, Madam."
The fortune teller said that the daughter had a strong destiny, but her in-laws ignored the relationship between blood relatives and drove her and her out. Now that the daughter has received the approval of Mrs. Xiao, her future life will definitely be smooth.
Daohua asked Guyu to bring some toys for girls, and while she was entertaining Qiaojie, she listened to Fangniang talking about things in the market.
Before I knew it, half a day had passed.
Seeing that it was getting late, Daohua didn't want to keep Fangniang and her daughter any longer. "My lady, if you have time, please come to our house more often. I really like your stories about everyday life."
As he said this, he asked Guyu to prepare some gifts and personally escorted the mother and daughter out of the house.
Guyu sent Fangniang and her daughter to the door, and thoughtfully prepared a carriage to take them back.
"Madam likes Qiaojie. Madam, please bring Qiaojie here again tomorrow."
Before leaving, Guyu gave Fangniang some advice.
Fang Niang was stunned for a moment. She thought that it was just Mrs. Xiao's polite words, but she didn't expect Miss Guyu to ask her to come again tomorrow.
"Thank you, young lady."
Fang Niang was not ignorant of the situation. Since she was divorced by her husband's family, she had to raise her daughter alone. Only she knew the difficulties involved.
Because she is an abandoned woman, she is often bullied. It would definitely be a good thing for her if she could visit the Xiao Mansion more often.
When Guyu returned to the room, Daozi had woken up. Daohua had just fed her son and was walking slowly around the room while holding the little guy.
"Did they send them away?"
Guyu nodded: "I sent her away. Fangniang said she will come over tomorrow to talk to Madam."
She knew that the lady had been very bored during this period, so she thought of giving Fang Niang some advice. With Fang Niang by her side to talk, the lady would feel better.
Besides, I also want to help her.
Xiliang is already a cold and poor place, and it is very difficult for a woman to raise a child alone.
Daohua hummed, "What do you think of Lady Fang?"
Guyu thought for a moment and said, "I think Madam Fang is quite nice."
Daohua smiled and said, "How is it good?"
Guyu: "Although she was divorced by her husband's family, she did not feel ashamed to see others, nor did she blame the innocent Qiaojie. Instead, she relied on her own abilities to support her daughter. I think she is quite strong."
Daohua nodded and motioned Guyu to continue.
Guyu: "From the way Fangniang chatted with Madam today, she didn't complain about the hardships of life to attract Madam's sympathy, nor did she gossip about other people. Instead, she talked more about interesting things in the market. She seems quite optimistic."
Daohua agreed, "That's why Qiaojie loves to laugh so much."
In the next few days, Fang Niang went in and out of the Xiao Mansion every day. When the neighbors saw the Xiao Mansion's carriage, those who used to like to bully Fang Niang, think Fang Niang was an abandoned woman, and take advantage of Fang Niang all kept quiet.
After a few days of contact, Daohua saw that Fangniang was indeed good, especially in taking care of children. She was much more experienced than the two wet nurses at home, so she wanted to keep her in the mansion.
"Will you be my son's wet nurse?"
When Fangniang heard Daohua's question, she was completely stunned.
She had never dared to hope to marry into the Xiao family. The Xiao family had already given her a generous thank-you gift, and she was already very satisfied.
Seeing Fangniang standing there in a daze, Guyu couldn't help but feel anxious for her: "Fangniang, the lady is asking you a question."
Fang Niang came back to her senses and nodded quickly: "I am willing." Her daughter can now eat other foods, and she can feed the young master of the Xiao family.
Daohua smiled and said, "Well, then, bring Qiaojie and move into the mansion as soon as possible."
Capital city.
When Prince Ping received Xiao Yeyang's letter and learned that his grandson was born, he jumped up from his chair with joy: "Hahaha, I have a grandson too."
The other servants in the room heard it and immediately congratulated him: "Congratulations, Your Highness, on the birth of your grandson."
Prince Ping was very happy: "Okay, everyone in the palace will be rewarded with three months' monthly allowance." After saying that, he took the letter and excitedly entered the palace.
By the time the people in the palace learned the news, Prince Ping had already left in a carriage.
Looking at Concubine Ji's stiff cheeks, Concubine Jiang laughed out loud without any concealment.
Ever since the Jiang family was raided, she had not been reprimanded by the prince. Instead, the bitch Ji dared to act tyrannically over her.
How could she not know what Ji was thinking?
Isn't it because she thought that Xiao Yeyang was demoted to Xiliang, and Xiao Yechang was the only son left by the prince's side? She thought that in this way, she and her son could covet the title of the prince's mansion.
Now that Xiao Yeyang's eldest son is born, seeing how happy the prince is, Xiao Yechang, who wanted to seize the title of the prince, can just step aside.
The imperial palace.
The emperor was discussing something with several ministers when he saw Prince Ping running in like a gust of wind.
"My royal brother, I am so happy! I have a grandson!"
Prince Ping ignored the ministers in the hall and ran to the imperial desk with the letter in his hand: "Brother, please look, this is a letter from Ye Yang, and I have a grandson."
The emperor glanced at Prince Ping speechlessly and said, "Can't you see I'm dealing with state affairs?"
Prince Ping chuckled and didn't respond. He pushed the letter in front of the emperor and said, "Brother, Ye Yang also asked what name to give my grandson. Can you give me some advice?"
The ministers below looked at each other with a smile.
Although Prince Ping did not take charge of affairs and had little power, he was definitely the first among the royal family members to receive benefits from the emperor.
Look, as soon as my grandson was born, he came to seek benefits.
What a great honor it is to be given a name by the Emperor!
The emperor picked up the letter and read it. He learned that his nephew's eldest son was born after repelling the army led by Xiao Yechi. He looked at the several names attached to the letter and said, "Let's call him Xiao Moxi."
hope.
When several ministers heard the name chosen by the emperor, their expressions changed.
It seems that the emperor has high expectations for Prince Xiao!
